Tuesday en- route for Andover. Capt.
Smith though not dude or vain or over
proud man has great liking for expensive
hats. When dressed in his boat regimentals
he wears hat that the ornaments on it cost
at least the princely sum of $125.00 He has
two of them, an all white and an all red, an
abbreviated brim Buffalo Bill SLOUGH hat.
The ornaments on these hats have cost at
least S25000, and they are Enthusiastically beau
tiful beyond description and will inspire en-
vious jealousy In the bosom of any disciple
of Izaak Walton, If not in the fair sex who
wear birds and lizards on their hats. 1t is
the custom with the fisherman passengers on
his boat to present the Captain with trout
fly, beetle or bug and it is deity hooked into
his hat so the different colored insects blend
tremendously in gorgeous array.

Serious Accident to Major Thaxter.

Thursday morning Major Sidney w.
Thaxter, of the firm of S. w. Thaxter 81 Co.,
left Portland on the noon train for South
Berwick on business. He didn't have time
to get his dinner and went off without it, He
spent the afternoon transacting his business,
and then enjoyed good supper. After sup
per he went up to the railroad station to
catch the train due in Portland at II p. m.
while in the waiting room, which was very
warm, he felt oppressed and thought he
would see if the outdoor air would remove
his dlsagreeable feelings. He had hardly
reached the platfarm when he was seized
with vertigo, probably the effect of indiges-
ton, and fell down two steps striking vio-
lently on his face The blow was so severe
that his nose and jaw were both broken, and
he received an ugly cash in the throat, and
another in the chin.
When picked up he had enough conscious
ness to say that he lived in Portland and to
ask that telegram be sent to DR.. Gerrish to
meet him as the train arrived in this city.
He was put aboard the train and the conduc-
tor gave him a towel to wash the blood from
his face, but the telegram was not sent, and
when he reached Portland he was put
aboard a hack and sent home. He is serious
ly hurt but will come out of the accident all
rioht

they cannot beat the Maine iron, even with
their advantages.
